Other Shaving Creams We Tried
Billie Whipped Shave Cream: We also tried the Billie Whipped Shave Cream, which is formulated for sensitive skin types and gentle enough to provide a close shave without irritating the skin. While testing, we found that the formula was a bit too thin for our liking, but it still worked well to smooth our skin and also provided enough slip for our razors to glide across our skin.
Kopari Organic Coconut Melt: The Kopari Organic Coconut Melt is another formula that stood out to us during the testing period. Since it’s formulated with coconut oil, we found it to be ultra-nourishing but also just a bit too greasy for our liking. Nonetheless, it’s worth mentioning because it worked well at preserving our spray tan while shaving — an unexpected perk.

What to Know About Shaving Creams
Price and Value
It’s always a win when you find a product you use often in a budget-friendly price range. That’s why we loved the Flamingo Foaming Shaving Gel and the Skintimate Skin Therapy Dry Skin Women’s Shave Gel, priced at around $6 and $4, respectively. And while we say “oui” to splurging on the Oui the People Sugarcoat Moisturizing Shave Gel-to-Milk, it really depends on how much you plan to shave. With many of the products on our list, a little goes a long way, so keep in mind there’s value to be had, regardless of the price tag.
The product’s size can also contribute to its value. If you’re looking for the best value and don’t mind spending a bit more upfront, a more expensive — but much larger — bottle could be worth the splurge. If you’re shopping with value in mind, Eos Sensitive Skin Shave Cream and Skintimate Shave Gel both come in 7-ounce bottles for budget-friendly price tags. The Skintimate gel is actually the best value on our list, though, since it comes in a three-pack for under $10.
Formula/Consistency

Whether you choose a gel, foam, oil, or cream is entirely up to you. We suggest opting for one that is easy to apply a thin layer to your skin to create a smooth route for your razor to travel, but not so much that you’ll end up wasting the product. It also depends on whether you prefer to shave wet or dry; we like that the Hanni Shave Pillow Moisturizing Body Gel allows you to shave either way. But, if you prefer a thicker consistency, go with the Eos Sensitive Skin Shave Cream and, for something a bit thinner, try the Oui The People Moisturizing Shave Gel-to-Milk.
Ingredients
As with all skin products, you’ll want to read the ingredients to see that you’re avoiding any allergens and are keying into your skin’s unique needs. Ingredients are especially important in shaving cream because you’re applying a sharp razor against the skin and need some extra slip. Plus, shaving is exfoliating, so the added moisture can help soothe the skin and improve its texture. We love the moisturizing effects of Fur Shave Cream for the bikini line and the shea butter-infused Eos Shea Butter Dry Skin Shave Cream, which is calming for irritated skin. If you prefer something with all-natural ingredients, the Lather Almond Shave Cream is a good bet.
Behind the Scenes
Our PEOPLE Tested team tried out 20 shave creams and gels, using a multi-blade razor and shaving at least twice a week over the two-week trial period. For each shaving cream, we evaluated based on the feel and consistency of the product, how well it lathered, if it easily distributed across the shaving area, how close and even the shave turned out, whether there was any skin irritation, and how our skin looked and felt after the shaving was complete.
- Feel and Consistency: Shaving cream consistency can completely alter the shaving experience, so we first considered the formulas’ textures and how they felt against the skin. While some preferences vary, the best shaving creams have a consistency that allows razors to easily glide across the skin without causing irritation or preventing a close shave.
- Lather and Distribution: Depending on the texture, some formulas also need to lather enough to spread it around the shaving areas for enough coverage.
- Skin Smoothness: Shaving can cause irritation, so it was also important for us to evaluate the skin’s look and feel and make note of any formulas that were particularly hydrating, soothing, or softening.
- Shave Results: Of course, the whole point of using shaving cream is to achieve a smooth and hairless surface — so results were very important. When testing these razors, we considered the overall performance of each design, plus how close of a shave they allowed.
